Facebook adds 360-degree video to News Feed

Facebook on Wednesday began rolling out 360-degree viewing at the leading social network, letting people change their perspectives in specially created videos. "We've seen that people enjoy more immersive content in their News Feeds," video engineering director Maher Saba said in a blog post. Synched rings cameras are used to capture video in a way that lets viewers virtually look around as if they are in the middle of a scene.
